    KTM 500 EXC for Dual Sport riding

    Piet, hoe is jou shock setup? Het jy al verskillende setup getry? Laat my nou dink. Op die Noord Kaap se grondpaaie het my ou 525 meer rondgebons as my vriend se 300. Ek het my RM250 se shock setup laat doen vir fast sweeping gravel en my EC300 is nou my enduro en trail (track) bike. Voor die...

    Gas Gas - Your opinion of the brand.

    I have a 2022 Gasgas EC 300. Bought brand new and paid R145,000 incl some goodies. Bargain for me if compared to same model Husky and KTM. There are a hella lot of same parts between the 3 bikes and I am too ignorant to worry about that. KTM will always lead in sales and popularity and Husky...

    But your propellant is still cheaper than here in NZ.

    Life in America - We made the move.

    Fark me, that heat with humidity is not lekker. But what surprises me the most was the sea water temps. If I am not mistake it was 38 or something. That's bladdy hot. To help you cool down. Below is a videokie taken Saturday. (90 mins from our home and thats me in orange.)

    Is the leisure bike market in SA dying ?

    Off road bikes don't get registered here. I think they are not in the numbers you provided.

    Is the leisure bike market in SA dying ?

    My take from the arse end of the world. Earning power. Its easier to buy a bike in NZ dollar than in SA rand. Example, a plumber appy in NZ only have to work 3 hour to be able to afford the weekly payments of a 2022 Yammie 700 Tenere. MX/enduro bikes absolutely exploding here. Plenty of...

    Body armor

    I had an off a few weeks ago. Between the carpark and the entrance to our forest trail. On a piece of tar with plenty of tar pebbles. Had to remove them with a tweezer. Because of the unusual warm weather here, 5 min before the ride I decided to swop my full upper body armour for a roost plate...

    Lekker ou lekker. Quality time with your son is awesome. He will remember it for al long time. Kahawai which I calls Kawasaki is a lekker baklei vis. Surprisingly strong for its size. I usually makes vis koekies with them. My kiwi mates smokes them. (in a smoker). As they are fairly abundant...

    Turkana Panniers - Any Feedback?

    Most of the older dogs know Michnus personally for years. Not licking his fat arse but I trust him and know he is a honest guy. I will buy his gear without hesitating. As said, his gear is being tested in the field, daily.

    Chasing rainbows in the Cederberg

    @Adriaan.theron Love you RR Net 'n vragie. Toe ek jonger was het ek in die Sederberge geboer. (1980's tot 2000's) Gewoontlik met 'n rugsak op my skouers. Daai jare was die rangers nogal streng en hulle het die berge plat geloop. Die pad van die top van Pakhuis na Heuningsvlei. Is dit nie...

    Other interesting thing. As Hannes mentioned some Māori iwi (tribes) have lots of land. In many case they cant sell as the land had been restored to them and is in a special kind of trust. Now when they want to build a house for the different members the banks are not keen to loan money due to...

    To add to Hannes post and my take. The price of meth in NZ is of the highest in the world. Therefore its very profitable for gangs and cartels to be involved. NZ does have the capacity to deal properly with the gangs but as most of them are Māori and Pacifica it becomes quickly a political...

    Fook that's cold. Strongs with the covid. We had a balmy 7degrees here this am. Beautiful day here in Kapiti. Nice thing about NZ winter weather, every time when a H parks itself above NZ the days are cold but beautiful. Take the family to ski/fall/play at Mt Hutt. Just hour and half from you.
